Or they can sell to a Large Hotel chain like (Marriott) or (Sheraton) that has oodles and oodles of money, And they can build a large Hotel Resort for the vacationers, Lot of screaming kids to bother all neighbors, loud boats, Parties down at the beach going to all hours, Bonfires till 2 in the morning. Let the Big Boys fight Gilford, they have enough money and lawyers to bury Gilford with 100's of thousands of dollars in paperwork and court appearances, Gilford will lose so much money it would be laughable. Yes they would get higher Taxes out of them, but then,they would have to because it cost them millions to lose.
Just one scenario, but I'm sure the Ames Family has thought about it.
